Allotrope Press Issue 02 'Lists'

Lists, edited by Emma Dwan O’Reilly & Keith Winter,

Allotrope / University of Ulster, 2011

Issue 02 launch coincides with our participation in ”Convergence”, a group show curated by Christa-Maria Lerm Hayes opening at the Golden Thread Gallery on 16 June, 6-8pm and running till 05 August 2011.

Every single erasure,
correction, experiment, improvement, addition and change, inflicted and
occurring, during preparatory development and production era comes out, shown
up, with a vengeance, in final end-result.

Especially amongst their own
number, even more than when with others, everybody, everything and everywhere
gets far too easily mixed-up, confused and mistaken; so that from any one to
the next, there’s no difference between any one of them, or any way to distinguish
any one from another.

Pure and raw
tricks-of-the-light and sleight-of-hand enjoy playtime and fooling around with
jigsaw puzzle maps.

However, extreme caution is
observed, exercised and enforced, because it only takes one false move, some removal
away or extra contribution too many — and they all fall apart and collapse
down.
